What is the scariest, creepy picture you’ve ever seen that shock you?

In my opinion, the pictures below are some of the scariest pictures on the internet.

WARNING: Highly graphical pictures below.

An african man burnt alive by rebels in libya.

In 2017, humans are being sold as slaves.

This is horrible.

Just very wrong. WHY!!

Why is the world not doing anything about this? it’s really bad to watch my fellow black men being treated like animals, let justice be done. STOP MODERN DAY SLAVERY.

I would nominate this.

In 1921, an unknown object fell from the sky releasing odd shaped creatures..

Slimy, tall and dark.

They wiped out 3 villages before the town considered the threat.

On a dark chilly night, a city called Baroun was able to gather a small army of selfless soldiers to eradicate the threat.

The soldiers wore protective masks because they didn’t know what they were up against.

The creatures returned to their ship every night for some sort of recharge.

The soldiers approached, it’s the moment of truth.

A ray of light struck the group, so intense, they had to cover their faces.

Mayhem followed, dead parts of the soldiers flew mid-air without prior warning.

‘HEEEEEEELLLL..’

The radio piece fell unto the ground, crushed into fragments.

Suddenly, the night sky illuminated, a blast from the sky came down.

An enormous blast that shook the ground 15 miles across the town.

And then..silence, complete silence.

When the dust settled, the spaceship was gone.

Was it God, a meteor or the another spaceship?

We never knew.

Alright, sorry guys that was a science fiction, it’s just that this picture is too cool not to have a background story like that.

Here’s the story[1] :

Viktor Bulla’s photograph of hundreds of children wearing gas masks was not meant to be ghoulish, a commentary on war or lost innocence, but rather exemplified a reason for pride — the country was blessed with well-trained, well-equipped and obviously courageous young fighters. The picture dates from 1937, four years before the Siege of Leningrad, and that makes the weirdness vivid and poignant.

The Figure in the Window

Is this proof of time travel?

No one has been able to explain this mysterious figure spotted in the crowd of a soccer match in 2013.

It might be time to find a new house.

Never test your camera equipment at old farms.

Is this unexplained photo a staged scene or a rare moment captured of a terrifying cult?

This is an image from Miyake-jima, where everyone must carry a gas mask at all times, due to the vast amount of volcanic activity.

Be careful where you buy your fresh fruit.

Is this proof of psychic telemetry?

The pictures from WWII history…

The crucifixion of 16 Armenian girls in 1915 is one of the most truly shocking images I have ever seen.

“Each girl had been nailed alive upon her cross, spikes through her feet and hands, only their hair blown by the wind, covered their bodies.” (Auction of Souls documentary 1919)

These events were witnessed by Aurora Mardiganian who escaped and later starred in a 1919 documentary which depicted the Armenian Genocide.

I thought crucifixion was a Roman punishment. It was so surprising to see this picture. So it is quite a unique image and vivid in its depiction of the Armenian genocide.

Have you ever spotted a figure in the dark you didn’t recognize? Or heard a noise that made the hair on the back of your neck stand up?

Not everyone believes in ghosts. But for those that do, an encounter with something that goes bump in the night is no laughing matter.

So sit back, turn off the lights, check under the bed and enjoy this spooky journey to the unknown.

Stranger behind the camera

Submitted by Lori McGhee – Grove City, Ohio

“My 3-year-old son was trying to take a picture of me. He didn’t realize the camera was backward. He took several photos within seconds of each other. I grabbed the camera back when he was done and started erasing the photos to make space. The first two images were blurry duds. But when I got to the third picture, there was a startling face behind his. I’ve never seen this person in my life and we were the only two home.”

Fireside chats

Submitted by Mike Moroski – Downtown Cincinnati

“I ran a nonprofit coffee shop called Choices Cafe on the corner of 15th and Elm streets. It had a huge sub-basement with a lot of old remnants and bottles. It was totally haunted. Many high school students engaged in service learning activities there. One night, we were outside the shop around a fire and I took a picture of a young man. What came out shocked us.”

Who is that in the pantry?

Submitted by Stephanie Ater – Fayette County, Ohio

“I was in my kitchen with one of my kids. While she was eating, I took a picture of her and posted it on Facebook. That’s when people started asking me, “Who is the man in the background?” Her and I were the only two in the home. I looked at the picture again and you can see an older man looking around the corner of the pantry. Our house was built in 1877.”

Do you see anything? Here’s a closer look:

There’s something in the hallway

Submitted by Chris Stutz – Milford, Ohio

“I used to live in an apartment in Milford that was so haunted, I had to move out. Candles were tossed around. Half-body apparitions would float in the hallway. Different color orbs would float around my room. There were even scratches on my wife’s throat. The list goes on. It was evil, for sure. I have plenty of pictures to back up my stories. The one picture below is of a half-body apparition from the waist up to the neck that would walk around in my hallway at night.”

Caught by the motion detector

Submitted by Melissa Kottmyer – Florence, Kentucky

“Weird things were happening in my house: Unexplained noises, doors and cabinets opening. I set up a motion detection camera in my basement. I caught what looks like an old man walking in front of my computer. You can see through him. There is something behind the chair also. Not sure what it is.”

Something wicked this way comes

Submitted by Greg Pollitt – Withamsville, Ohio

“I am the co-founder of a paranormal investigation team called Paranormal Nights. On one of our investigations in late 2012, we visited a client’s home to investigate claims of the paranormal. The client said they witnessed shadow people, objects in the home moving and doors being slammed and locked. After we completed our interviews and began investigating, the home came alive with objects moving. We saw shadows crawling across the floor and ceiling… We had things happen and evidence to believe this was something of malice and possibly a demonic haunt. This is an image of something manifesting in front of our client. We drew an outline around the area. We also warmed the image for clarity.”

A patriotic spirit

Submitted by Laura Hagedorn – Fort Thomas, Kentucky

“This picture was taken during a Fourth of July parade. We were standing under a tent so there wasn’t anything on my camera.”

A friendly orb

Submitted by Holly Carmin – Park Hills, Kentucky

“This photo was taken months after my husband passed away. We had taken a bunch of pictures from the same spot, doing different poses. But this is the only one that had an orb. Friends of mine have zoomed in enough to where you can see a face.”

Stranger peeking in

Submitted by Kara Siler – Amelia, Ohio

“Growing up, my dad’s house held many spooky, unexplainable nights. We would hear loud, heavy footsteps running up the stairs when we were home alone. It also sounded like a person – or thing – was dragging a rake up the walls as it sprinted up the stairs. But there was one room in the house where – sometimes in photographs – it looked like a man was watching us from the windows. The photos below were taken in the same room and six months apart. Each shows a different window in the room.”

Don’t turn around

Submitted by Ed Singler – Bridgetown, Ohio

“My paranormal experience happened while I was standing at the top of my steps taking a photo of a framed picture I was selling online. You can see my legs and the steps in the reflection of the frame. And if you look closely, you can see the outline of a person’s head as if they are standing in the stairway. I was the only person home when I took this photo. I remember feeling a cold chill on the back of my neck. I’m glad I didn’t turn around.”

Home alone?

Submitted by Jennifer Owens – Goshen, Ohio

“This picture was taken this past March in my house. I was the only person home. The shadow in the hallway was gone shortly after I snapped the photo.”

The man in the wall

Submitted by Emily Chaney – Reading, Ohio

“I’ve always had a feeling that my house was haunted. Little things would happen here and there. I felt like someone was watching me. I would get random cold chills. The TV would randomly turn on or off. I would hear people talking. My family thought I was absolutely crazy. Then, a couple of years ago, my dog Roscoe randomly started growling. I had this weird feeling and I got cold chills. I decided to take a picture on my phone – and there it was: A man on my wall that looks like he has a receding hair line and a suit on.”

That’s not my child

Submitted by Yexam Nnael Elleinad – Cincinnati

“This photo of my daughter and my stepfather was taken at Spring Grove Cemetery. My daughter is holding a fish and was the only child there – but you can see the figure of what looks like another child on the left side of the image. My stepfather passed away that night. This is one of the last photos of him.”
